got the Wii... must have GC titles for kids?

[Tell.me.about.it]

Hey all... I managed to luck across a Wii today, and was thinking I might pick up a few of the cheaper/must have GameCube games. I've never owned a GC and haven't really followed it much... but what are some of the GC only titles I should pick up for my 7 year old (10+ mentally) and 5 year old boys? Thanks.

mario sports like mario tennis, mario soccer, etc.
the zelda games are always fun
super smash bros.
animal crossing

The only GC title I've picked up is Lego Star Wars. It's excellent; a must-have at $20.

If YOU want to play you have to pick up Resident Evil 4.

haha... I'll be playing. No way it'll be hooked up to my 50" tv and I not play.

I know they played the demo for lego star wars PS2. I'll have to check those out. I was thinking of Metroid as well. demo was ok on my DS.

keep em coming.

great games but probably way too hard for 5/7 year olds

Good thread. I might have to get some GC games cheap for my kids to play on the Wii. I guess I have to buy GC controllers though

Pikmin 1+2 are great games, VERY easy to get into.
